Derby mayoral candidate Rich Dziekan officially opened his campaign headquarters at 21 Elizabeth St. Thursday.
The headquarters are next to Archie Moore’s, a restaurant downtown.
The Republican candidate has been busy putting signs all over the city in an effort to get out the vote. Dziekan, a retired Hamden police officer born and raised in Derby, has knocked on hundreds of doors in the city.
“I am humbled by the support we received last night and on a daily basis as we knock on doors throughout the city,” he said in a prepared statement Friday afternoon.
Dziekan said his headquarters will be open Monday through Thursday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. and then from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the evenings.
The campaign will use the office on the weekends for special events, too.
“We would love for you to stop down to share your concerns about the city or just to say ‘Hi,’” Dziekan said.
